Just wish to see Douglas Souza of Brazil playing more. But with the presence of Leal & Lucarelli, he will be benched most of the time again.
Still no schedule of matches for this?
No info yet.
Interesting how many matches will be at the same time. 8 matches per day, so possibly 2 matches at the same time in a 2 different arenas or with 3 arenas there won’t be delays between matches (I’m thinking aloud only).
Anyway we have to wait.
As you know, VNL 2021 will start on May 25th. What will the match schedule be like, I don't understand
Brazil will play 3 friendly matches against Dominican Republic on the 16th, 17th and 18th, in Brazil. I wonder how this bubble will work if there will be no time for a proper quarantine lol
I can't see USA making the podium for a variety of reasons.

Just like we did with the playoff.. Just say "it's a bubble" and everyone is magically safe

Of this? who cares, it's just olympic preparation for most teams .

But I'm thinking about FIVB and about the other teams. Brazil sucks and our federation is a huge mess. We all know that.
I wonder how the teams will arrive in Italy and stay only a couple of days in quarantine.

USA's starting OHs are currently injured with Russell projected to miss the olympics.
Anderson also haven't played for over a year and could shift to OH for which we know is less impactful than him being as an opposite.
Ben Patch could finally play as starting opp although I'm not really sure if he's ready.
Anyway, that's just a feeling and I don't really see how the VNL as preparatory phases for olympics correlate to the topic at hand.

I'm sorry, I thought this was the female thread. However, Brazilian male NT will also play 3 friendly matches (against Argentina) on the 21th, the 22th and the 23th. VNL starts on May 28th, so there will only be 5 days for travel and quarantine.
Taylor Sander sprained his ankle week ago quite seriously and he has to pause for the next two weeks. So probably during VNL he will try to find a good shape.
Dutch media confirmed it! Great for Dutch volleyball!

what is the justification? Are they next in line in the ranking? Which teams were supposed to play challenger cup?

The FIVB posted this on their website: ‘As per the criteria for the selection of the original core VNL teams, the Netherlands has been invited to compete in the competition due to the team’s sporting excellence and the commercial potential of volleyball in the country.’
When will the men’s VNL start?
